Abstract: Flexible, Waterproof, and Dustproof Smart Keyboard with Adaptive Input and Self-Cleaning System This invention describes a flexible, rollable, waterproof, and dustproof smart keyboard engineered for extreme environmental conditions. It integrates self-cleaning nano-materials, ensuring a hydrophobic, dust-repellent, and antimicrobial surface that prevents contamination. The adaptive pressure-sensitive input system dynamically transitions between capacitive touch, mechanical key actuation, and haptic feedback modes, offering customizable user interaction. A micro-vacuum debris extraction system autonomously removes dust and particulate matter, maintaining uninterrupted functionality. The ultraviolet (UV-C) disinfection system periodically sterilizes the surface, eliminating microbial contaminants. The keyboard supports wireless multi-device connectivity via Bluetooth and RF protocols, facilitating seamless device switching. A solar-assisted energy harvesting system extends operational life by converting ambient light into electrical energy. Its rollable, shock-resistant polymer structure ensures durability and compact storage. This invention addresses mechanical wear, contamination, and power limitations in industrial, military, healthcare, and outdoor applications, providing a resilient, energy- efficient, and highly adaptable input device.
